Acts of the Apostles - New American Bible
The Acts of the Apostles, also known as the Book of Acts, is a New Testament book that provides a detailed account of the early Christian church after the ascension of Jesus Christ. It is traditionally believed to be written by Luke, a physician and companion of the apostle Paul.
The book begins with the ascension of Jesus and the apostles receiving the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. From there, it chronicles the spread of the Gospel throughout the Roman Empire, highlighting the ministry of Peter and Paul as they preach and establish communities of believers.
One key theme of Acts is the power of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the apostles, empowering them to continue the work of Jesus and to perform miracles and signs that draw people to the faith. This dynamic is exemplified in the story of Peter healing a crippled beggar at the Temple gate (Acts 3) and in Paul's escape from prison after an earthquake shakes open the prison doors (Acts 16).
Acts also shows the growth and expansion of the early church, including the inclusion of Gentiles as equal members of the faith community. This is seen in the conversion of Cornelius, a Roman centurion, and his household, and in the Council of Jerusalem, where the apostles determine that Gentile believers do not need to follow Jewish customs in order to be considered part of the church.
Overall, Acts presents a vivid picture of the early Christian church and the challenges faced by its leaders as they navigated a new and rapidly expanding faith. It offers insights into the workings of the early community, the nature of Christian mission, and the importance of faith in the power of the Holy Spirit.
